1:00 PM - 5:00 PM | Clinical Care Program: Part I
The Clinical Care Program (CCP), offered in 2025 in conjunction with the NF Conference, is geared towards those healthcare providers actively seeing NF patients in their clinic and will focus on current best practices and standard of care through panel discussions, case studies and didactic presentations. The CCP is an expanded and evolved update to the Clinical Care Symposium, previously held annually prior to the NF Conference Opening Session.
